Validating a release is probably the greatest example of why I asked the question and suggested that formalization might be needed. At this point, being a VP of a TLP at Apache I feel pretty confident that I can help podlings with good feedback on release practices. However, I can't really help them clear the '3 IPMC votes' hurdle, can I? Thanks, Roman. P.S. Same question could be asked wrt. other activities requiring IPMC karma, btw. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
